Does my car meet the rules....  Can I run slicks at the track or do I need to run my DOT's....   What gas?  Pump or race fuel?

sorry Scott, looks like street cars can't have turbos and be driven to the event Grin
It is cool that MPH is putting $ out of his own pocket-so I guess he deserves to make the rules!

I believe that at Vegas there was a $1500 prize for the fastest turbo car! I guess that wasnt enough money to draw anyone out.

Okay I will start it..... 

This is what I think it should be.....  Pump gas and run it exactly how you drove it on the street....  Make the drive 50-60 miles to weed out the questionable cars.

Okay shoot me now......

The rules are real simple......THERE ARE  NO RULES!!!!

Full outlaw running street cars, race cars, slicks, street tires, spools, full gear stacks, 5 speeds, carbs, turbos, nitrous, alcohol, race fuel....it doesn't matter, that's how simple the rules are.....just make the drive!

Like Mike said....make the drive and have the lowest E.T. =  $$$$$


                                 RUN WHAT YOU BRUNG!!!!!!!

I put a $100 on it already....this is the rules I like-----No rules

speaking of which... better remind 'em that it's the e.t. run at the track, not going to the track, that earns the prize money :-)
